A troughy pattern exists through the Northern Tasman down to the South Coast with the remnants of TC 10P (named by JTWC but remained a cyclone for less than a day) drifting in a SW direction from out near New Caledonia as a weak sub-tropical low. A small low pressure cell near the South Coast is slowly drifting south leaving a variable flow in it’s wake across the f/cast region.

Strong cross-shore winds will spoil a coming swell while there's more opportunity for a surf next week with good pulses of swell and more favourable winds.

Winds are looking better this week with troughy weather and generally favourable morning conditions.

There's not much to chase on the weekend, while some better swell is due next week but with poor winds.
